These could very well be home made signs, but if you’ve ever worked on a campaign before, you’d know that “home made” rally signs are actually created by campaign staffers and volunteers in order to reflect the campaign’s message of the day, or a general campaign theme.

I’m just sayin’.

    Even if the campaign isn’t behind it, they allowed it.

    Showing this pic right now on David Gregory’s show…Mike Duhaime said that McCain condemns that sort of thing and he’s worked his whole career trying to bring people together. Wonder what he’d think of this:http://www.myleftnutmeg.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=10520(I posted the link earlier so if you’ve already seen it, sorry for the repeat, but I think it’s an important picture – disgusting, but important)

    Ceu- wow. And that’s not just your average nutjob quality paste-up work. That’s some pro grade Photoshop and what I think has to be some custom photography…that or there’s a stock photo gallery out there that services a pretty deranged market.There’s more to this than one wingnut.Obama has fight the smears…seems like McCain needs a similar site to enumerate the growing list of acts-in-his-name he finds deplorable. A site dedicated to distancing himself from his own supporters!! That’s anarchy we can believe in!!

    OK, y’all. This crap is not going to end when the election is over…the progressive community needs to get very, very organized to fight this for the next eight years.

    I just looked at the picture on that website link and almost fell off my chair. In this day and age, in this country, there are that many assholes around..it’s just shocking, sad, deplorable, depressing.My elderly neighbor (who normally votes Democrat) told me she’s not voting for Obama because “he’ll just help all the black people.” I told her she should be ashamed of herelf and walked away.Well, all this will only make those of us who are coherent and intelligent to work harder for Obama and for social justice.

    I was just going to say, I work for the Obama campaign and we had sign parties when Obama or Biden came to town. All signs have to be approved by the campaign and are made by vols. Sick bastards!

    Rally attendees are generally not allowed to take their own signs in, at least that’s been my experience in this cycle.Fairly obviously made by the McCain camp. Pathetic.

    Can we circulate our own “NOBAMA” letter and start generating a list of respondents? I wanna know who these hoopleheads are so we can be sure not to give them tax breaks, healthcare, affordable energy, etc. when we start cleaning up this mess.
